>>So I drove through flooded streets yesterday...

There could be some water in the cross-over pipe from the turbo to the
intercooler.  The cross-over pipe should be removed (two bolts + two clamps)
to check... and drain out any accumulated water. 

Be grateful that you car is still running after driving through water!
After getting caught in a flash flood 9 years ago, my engine ingested enough
water to bend two rods.  This resulted in a complete rebuild including 5 new
pistons and rods and 20 new valves.
